vaccination nightmare

[BWL]

Literally. The issue of vaccinations and researching them and wondering if i'm doing the right thing for my family......and all the media hype and going against the flow. It's all obviously playing on my mind. Last night I had a nightmare. In it I was at a meeting or seminar that was about vaccinations and the dangers of. Suddenly a group of people burst in, all holding needles. They told us we would be jabbed. They were all zombie like and repeating the same thing all together, something like 'you will be vaccinated'. In the nightmare I was terrified and I was holding my DD, trying to run away from these people. But one of them managed to jab me in the arm and I woke up almost screaming.
:eek:

How long did you all take to feel comfortable with your decisions re: to vaccinate or not to vaccinate?

As soon as you find out the REAL facts you will be more confident in your decisions (lots of reading). Be open minded.

Trust your instincts, that's what they are there for!

Good luck

I went with the status quo (despite my gut) and vaccinated....

I'll never be comfortable with my decision. If I had my time again my children would be unvaccinated.

I starting feeling much better when I knew what the diseases were that were being vaccinated for, what the disease looks like in the majority of cases, circumstances that can lead to complications and when treatment is needed. If intervention is needed, what kind of intervention. This put my mind at ease regarding the diseases.
Then when I started to look into the ingredients in the vaccines and the lack of safety trials (measuring one vaccine against another, and in the case of prevnar, an experimental vaccine at that) and the unerring belief that vaccine will keep my baby alive like nothing else can - I started to become quite passionate about my child never being vaccinated.

HTH

It is not an easy decision either way. That sounds like a very scary nightmare.

it's hard to thrown myself back that far, and try to work out when.

But I think that things will get much worse for those who chose to use their own brains. Backbone will become a precious commodity...
